Ce'lie let out a relieved sigh when I'shan agreed to spend more time with their son. "Thank you," she said sincerely, a small smile playing on her lips. She leaned back and visibly relaxed. Her hands stopped shaking. She still didn't feel like herself, but she did feel better.
"Would you like something to drink? Tea? Klah?" the greenrider offered, feeling like she was being a terrible host. She took in a few deep breaths and exhaled, trying to relieve herself of the anxiety that still lingered. Somehow, even though it would be difficult for her to deal with not having Isharyn around at night, now that I'shan had agreed, it seemed like it might be less of an ordeal. She tried not to think about it too much; if she did, she was sure to back out and keep Isharyn with her and that wouldn't do either of them any good.
"I... I hope I'll be okay, I'shan," Ce'lie said softly, having trouble meeting his eyes.She noticed that from the way the bluerider's lip twitched, he might actually be worried about her. Was that even possible? Their relationship had been so distant over the past turns that she was fairly certain he didn't give a glow about her. She was still feeling rather vulnerable and since she truly was grateful for his help she decided that she would trust him. This one time. If he was genuinely concerned, it meant that she'd misjudged him.
"When it comes down to it.. I'm basically terribly, irrationally afraid of the dark. So much so that it's difficult for me to sleep alone at night," she explained, feeling her cheeks getting hot. "I know it's stupid... that it shouldn't be this way. That it's childish," she said with a grimace. "But that's how it is," she said with a small shrug.
The greenrider studied I'shan's face, watching his reaction. What would he make of it? She wasn't as sure as she had been a few moments ago about how he would behave after learning about her little problem.
